Important safety information
To avoid contact with electrical current:
• Never install electrical wiring during an electrical storm
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless that jack is specifically designed for wet locations
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines
• Use a screwdriver and other tools with insulated handles
• You and those around you should wear safety glasses or goggles
• Do not place telephone wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet or junction box containing electrical wiring
Warning: Do not work on your telephone wiring if you wear a pacemaker. Telephone lines carry electrical current.
Installation of inside wire may bring you close to electrical wire, conduit, terminals and other electrical facilities.
Extreme caution must be used to avoid electrical shock from such facilities. You must avoid contact with all such
facilities.
• Telephone wiring must be at least 6 feet from bare power wiring or lightning rods and associated wires, and at least
6 inches from other wire (antenna wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers to neon signs), steam or hot water
pipes, and heating ducts.
• Before working with existing inside wiring, check all electrical outlets for a square telephone dial light transformer
and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Failure to unplug all telephone transformers can cause electrical shock.
• Do not place a jack where it would allow a person to use the telephone while in a bathtub, shower, swimming pool,
or similar hazardous location.
• Protectors and grounding wire placed by the service provider must not be connected to, removed, or modified by
the customer.
Specific information related to different types of communication connections
Connecting an Instant Internet unit containing an analog modem
It is not necessary to notify the telephone company before installing the modem. However, the telephone company may
request the telephone number(s) to which the unit is connected and the related FCC information including the FCC Part
68 registration number and the ringer equivalence number.
Be sure that the telephone line you are connecting the modem to is a standard analog line and not a digital (PBX), party,
or coin telephone line. If the modem is malfunctioning, it may affect the telephone lines. In this case, disconnect the
modem until the source of the difficulty is traced.
